I always get a an "error: $1: argument number out of range" then it sets 
it 0. I just tried putting in \$1 and it didn't complain, but it still 
set it to 0. This is the debian package version (0.37.4). Just checked 
with a CVS version from October 1st (0.37.2 devel) and it does the same. 
Can 0.38 do this?

That would be hot. Maybe then I really would do all my editing in a text 
editor ;)
